Let your hair grow for 3-4 weeks initially before you start waxing. The hair must be at least ¼ to ½ inch long, this ensures you a much cleaner wax. Before you come in for your service do not apply moisturizer. Do not use any exfoliating products 1 week prior to waxing. Then, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE ask questions. We are happy to help put your mind at ease. We want the experience to be as smooth as possible.

After:

Do not expose newly waxed areas to the sun or extreme heat. Your skin is now vulnerable and exfoliated leaving you more susceptible to burning and sensitivity. Use sunscreen to avoid hyper-pigmentation and damage. Hands carry lots of germs and oil. Please keep your dirty paws off the waxed area!

Recommendations:

We highly recommend a few days after waxing that you start exfoliating the skin. It is not uncommon to get ingrown hairs from the service. Exfoliating and acne products can help with this issue. Exfoliating gloves work best and can be thrown in the washer for several washes. Ask your practitioner for product recommendations available at the studio.

Expectations:

Waxing hurts. The first time hurts more than the others. It gets easier the more consistent you wax. Expect to come back in 3 to 4 weeks. Staying consistent helps reduce reactions as your body acclimates. This also keeps the hair growing in at a slower rate. Expect service in a comfortable, supportive, clean environment.
